Synopsis
Includes the plays Someone is Going to Come, The Guitar Man, The Name and The Child In Someone is Going to Come the two of them want to be together, just the two of them, so they leave the city and buy a remote house by the sea. But is it possible to do what they want to do? Won't somebody come? Surely someone will come. The Guitar Man is a poignant monologue in which a busker sings songs to an audience that is always on the move, always passing him by. The Name (winner of the Ibsen Prize in Norway) tells the story of an estranged family forced to live under one roof. When a pregnant girl and the father of the child have nowhere to live, they move into her parents' house. But the parents have never met the father-to-be, and don't yet know about the pregnancy. In The Child a man and a woman find each other in a bus stop on a rainy night. They hold each other close. They rent an old house out of town. The woman becomes pregnant. But the child is too small to survive. In these four varied plays Jon Fosse's unique linguistic style, at once poetic and naturalistic, magnifies the love and pain of ordinary people seeking to live their lives. Cast sizes: 3,6,1,6, Author of novels, poetry, essays and books for children, as well as award-winning plays, Jon Fosse is a leading Norwegian writer whose work has been translated into a number of languages and performed throughout Europe. Fosse's unique style, at once poetic and naturalistic, magnifies the love and pain of ordinary people. He won the Ibsen prize for his play The Name , which is included in this collection along with Someone is Going to Come, The Guitar Man , and The Child., Fosse's unique style, at once poetic and natutalistic, magnifies the love and pain of ordinary people.
